The picnic in Topola Genre: Social filmDirector: Zoran AmarShort description:
Kraka left home again. He wanders through town with Maks all night. In
a drugstore they meet Olga, a student, and Kraka offers her marriage,
joking. Few days later, two of them really marry. A group of young
ones goes to a nearby channel to unconventionally celebrate the wedding.
In boredom and with drinks, old problems open up. During their
worst mood, two drunk locals appear, people of the same age from a
nearby town, and invite them to join. The young men refuse, but Aleksa's
angry girl accepts and enters the boat. Soon she changes her mind,
realizing they are going to rape her. Fight starts, in which the
groom and his friends, saving their heads and their violated morality,
succeed in driving away the locals. They remain beaten up on the
bank, until the game warden drives them away, home.
